One possible issue with ordinals is the potential for confusion
between first of the week and first of the month, or even first of the
year. That may or may not be a problem, but since numbers are already
used to name days according to their position in the month, using
numbers to also name them according to their position in the week has
to be done carefully so that the two systems don't enter into
conflict.
